Hi Vanessa! You can use a hand mixer for the entire recipe. I just use a spatula to scrap the sides and bottom of the bowl to make sure I have everything well incorporated. πŸ™‚

Hi Kim! You shouldn’t have any issues freezing these cupcakes. πŸ™‚

You may be able to make a cake flour substitute, but you will still want to use your flour by weight. πŸ™‚

Hi Harley! If you don’t have cake flour they are naturally going to be more dense, but make sure to use a scale to measure your flour to reduce this.

Can you use buttermilk instead of whole milk?

Hi Sherry! I have not personally frozen them with frosting on top, but I don’t see any reason it wouldn’t work. I would likely stick them in the freezer so the frosting can freeze then pull out and wrap individually. πŸ™‚

They rose up beautifully. Haven’t frosted yet. I may try rolling the frosting in plastic wrap and dropping into my bag because I do not have a 20″ bag.

I made these today but didn’t attempt dual icing and they came out incredibly good. My first attempt at cupcakes. Sam your recipes are awesome!

Hi Kim! Cutting the recipe in half will work just fine. πŸ™‚

I can’t make these right away, and that thought is TORTURE. Why did you have to post this?! πŸ™‚ Just kidding. I can’t wait to make these! Question, can I halve this recipe for 12 cupcakes?
